花語：錯過
這是個接近鬼神、妖魔的時代，人類既畏懼又崇拜那種超過自己的力量。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlALE2P662N
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IX3esRzZX
漆黑的夜空星光格外閃耀，可惜無法將光輝射入這座荒城。狼嘯在城堡後的山上傳來，在山腳的城鎮回響。人們都瑟縮家中，害怕夜裡會被妖魔吞食、殺害。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDE7Cnkejdx
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbIidYz7bX
在鎮民間盛傳於森林深處，午夜會有吸食人類鮮血的怪物，他們以將人撕裂作樂，甚為可怖。故此晚上如同頒布了戒嚴令，沒有人會在外面走動。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntR15G7lkc
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9M14eA2jW
不，不對。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBzmWLLgbI
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohn3uA4SXA
原本應為無人之境的森林深處，有名少女正借用星光來照明，毫不猶豫地朝城堡跑去。她就是「怪物」？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLC6KIGStJE
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiTd69FOWi
儘管她一身輕便的黑色衣裝，把臉亦藏起來，但仍能感受到普通人類的氣息。不過她抱著某件被布包裹的東西，當中散發出陣陣的血腥味。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaeHppwwjG
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ufV7xow1z
越過滿是荊棘的圍牆，她如入自家的庭園，完全沒有半分迷惑。來到某角落的窗前停下，她解開面罩，直接地坐在只剩下框的窗前。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBymuOBO0yh
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnm9JRXuu2
說美女是稱不上，但總算是可人兒。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8QaR926PR
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGKDautsdB
只是容貌如何並非重點，叫人驚奇是在窗的另一側、古堡裡面，也出現一張相同的臉。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDo1VAxs2g
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmgySyPITM
啊、不對，裡面那位的肌色更是慘白，半點血色也沒有，她身穿一條黑色的長裙，將雙腿也掩住。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wBnKQdD0U
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNlYbKFFpX
「茜，你終於來了啊……」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUesfknsVG
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUE9WysbhOH
城堡內的少女，好像撒嬌的嚷道。她靠在無玻璃的窗框上，想要伸手出來，可是又停住。而外頭被稱為茜的那位，則笑了笑將手伸入去緊握住對方。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNk08WJM6cf
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKF87K59xl
「姊姊，睡飽了？」茜輕輕地呼喚對方，也就是自己的姊姊——蕾。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiC8BB638jH
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAP001S9Bz
「唔、好像……是吧……我已不太記得了。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5uPXMtYas
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkagCuuX92
「姊姊……」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56JjexH8W4
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRW1sAmBWe
茜凝視關在城堡內的蕾，如一的臉龐隨日子而慢慢改變。她們明明本來是雙生的存在，為何現在正背對背越離越遠呢？這時，她記起曾經見過的雙生花，背對背而生，至枯萎才有機會見面。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5XwdrSty4
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrCjDmRSDN
不！她才不要！即使姊姊已經不再是——582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbF2iocGCS
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnUvAUnQPZ
總之，她不可能把姊姊丟下！582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfda4iKiXss
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCOJAVX5yH
「茜在想什麼？別不說話，我會怕啦！這裡又一點光也沒有……」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9enPPaDnvh
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Dw6Fi58A7
「姊姊別怕……啊！你剛起床，應該會很餓了。我帶了你最喜歡的果汁來！」茜聞得姊姊的叫嚷，就即時把不安收起，端出平常的笑容說道。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvDnmfqgSp
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzRaVUkISO
只是茜明白的，蕾已經不再是人類，變成有接近永遠生命的存在。把本來抱住的那東西交給蕾，同時默默地想著。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8O6vDvnRR3
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lhIsEszt0
（啊啊，在我老死後，姊姊要怎麼辦呢？） 582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZXwKAdgH0
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzZbBnO21Q
當然，這麼的事茜不敢說出口。她看著自己的姊姊把那布裹之物——血漿打開，然後好像吸吮什麼美味的樣子，就覺得很可怕。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPkR9PTc2M
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Ouu1cfEOh
對。蕾現在是吸血鬼，吸食鮮血的……怪物。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uF8ig2CFQ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPG8UCFa2m
蕾已不會再長大，只要不被殺，就永遠是這個模樣。而她自己呢？會老、會死……582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0L5ZKYNQI
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJZ9yD0Ppy
（姊姊會忘了我吧？）582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UEcjEbrxQ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLS07sQy3LQ
「茜幹什麼這麼望著我嘛？啊！我知道了！是茜也口乾吧！」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWydSJWCfhp
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡak0LuytecD
本來沒有血色的蕾，在飲用了大半包血漿後，臉色恢復了不少。她露出天真的笑容，用力地抓住茜的手，只是蕾嘴角的腥紅，叫茜嚇得即時縮手。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6BVB430TD
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2nuJlc4MZ
只是茜隨即就後悔了，眼下是自己姊姊受傷的表情，那份哀傷感同身受。當初蕾就是為了救她，而成為這種罪惡之身，她就把自己困在古堡。現在她竟然……582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEy07WEQ3q1
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiM3LZ08sSi
「呀、抱歉……這麼牽著手太累了！不如我直接入來，好嗎？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNme0eSHWCX
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1QqHRrUNn
為了打圓場，茜故作開朗的手舞足蹈。而蕾沒跟住站起來，只是仰起頭凝望自己的妹妹，沉默不語的表情，叫人難以看透。只是這麼的狀況沒有維持多久，她就搖搖頭。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBd5U5rVJv
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjE6nrNkED
「不用了，這裡不是好地方。」剛還在對茜撒嬌的蕾，突然恢復了往日姊姊的風範，沉隱和理性。可是看在茜的眼中，既懷念又害怕。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUIqHCwNnD
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfkmKyxWmg
（蕾記起當時的狀況嗎？她會不會恨我？）582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyjI2hrocL
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZE7rfJDPr
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViLGqkvU5k
她們的父母早在戰火中離世，二人一直、一直都在一起。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQ81CQ3IbJ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99uf8NSyVc
穿過荒郊野外，她們冷時就相依而睡。茜的鞋子破了，蕾就把自己的和她交換。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMl3r9vIRvp
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1m1tYgXJY
二人去過無數大大小小的城鎮，因年紀輕又是女生，所以找不到人僱用。可是人總會餓，每每蕾就跑去偷麵包給茜吃，試過被發現、被打傷，可是蕾總是不說出口。直至茜發現問到，她才笑著說不痛。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOz0WF9HEKw
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eF3ZKoPmW
「世界上最美的是什麼呢？」每次痛苦時，快要面對死亡前，她們就會捉緊對方的手，問著對方如此的問題。想像美好的事物，令困乏的身軀添些精力，繼續走下去。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4UUwzJOvT
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimqHtrPzCm
那時，茜仍相信二人能這麼過一生。躲在蕾的背後長大，茜覺不用得到什麼，只要有姊姊在就好了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXMok30OAL
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqBE5dPAYN
直至某天……582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlpRVyAsN0
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjUuWUAKpO
她們來到現在這個城中，雖然很想找工作，令無盡的旅程中稍微休息，可是像她們這種看來和乞丐沒分別的外表，根本沒有人想僱用。如此其實也沒差，反正她們早已習慣了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCirbYn6Aqf
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQH3DXCj4c8
只要二人一起，去哪裡也沒關係！582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXOfTDqhVJ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgFcD00QTw
沒多久，她們就被趕出了城鎮，來到了森林。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQqBbiv8dj
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bycnTnmet
森林的面積很大，連合了幾座山頭。路途比想像中更長更難行，她們在沒有準備、沒有食物、沒有食水之情況下，很快就面對死亡。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb45bepi2DD
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBf1FaMoKGW
野獸在身邊徘徊，等待她們力盡之時。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1QxzB0ftv
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzO5021JkX
茜雖覺很難受，可是依然拉住蕾的手。縱然要走到人生的終點，最少還有至親在身邊……582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrhBU2erfE
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRH4n2YiKp9
半昏迷的茜，突然感到有液體流入口中。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJbaeLunOh
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFSmE2UUZc
啊啊，是什麼也沒所謂了。她只覺得很口乾，就大口大口飲下那黏稠的液體。嘴巴更被塞入一些柔軟的肉。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZXvqKqSVT
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJXUMYjMa5
那些，是什麼來呢？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiCJHxGRWT
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkYIMSHobx
當時茜什麼也不知道。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJinbZXHHOA
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6nyFBLq9d
在她再次張開雙目，就發現自己躺在柔軟的床上。在床邊的櫃子上，還放了豐富的食物和水。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWeXvZh9PE
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMq3of8lGA5
極度的空腹與乾渴令茜忘起一切，未有思考原因為何，就狼吞虎嚥起來。只是當她平伏下來，才想起……姊姊到了哪？這裡又是什麼地方？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡse4WCoDaAn
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UzC4llIOi
只是剛吃飽，她就覺很累很累，沒多久又沉沉地睡著了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGCjJcMqI3
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuxGISTqLT
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAOd93Zjn8
「……茜，小茜！」熟悉且溫柔的嗓音在耳畔響起，茜知道這是姊姊的聲音。為了回應對方，她就緩緩地張開雙眼。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHYMeNh15g
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIIoANUw58
首先映入眼簾是蕾的臉龐，她的臉色雖然不太好，但看來乾乾淨淨，比平常更要漂亮。她正握住茜的手，還是暖暖的。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVN3gUspKpM
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQBBR2KTMR
「姊姊……」茜擠出聲音的同時，突然看到在蕾的背後，還站著個如同貴公子的男子。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxKxKnEZHm
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcm5eMDYJt9
他蒼白的膚色，配上一對血紅的眼睛，冷漠的神情使人不寒而慄。只是他的視線沒在茜身上停留多久，就傳回到蕾身上。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaJJ371ELY
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QDPJZaKJb
蕾和他對視，神色間霎然溫和起來。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKuVN4kYFU
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7yuTe1myU
「茜，這位是我們的救命恩人。」蕾露出甜甜的微笑，稍微向茜介紹身邊人。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBDkXiKFbW
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcaszgmyMr
不過，儘管蕾沒有說出口，但茜見到姊姊的另一隻手正牽住他。被分了一半的愛，在她而言，實在不是味兒。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgytc2uebxp
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDM6L6UKLoG
這時男子把蕾抱起，長長的裙子將蕾雙腳也掩過。茜總覺得很突兀，因為她很清楚蕾討厭穿長裙，說很不方便的啊！582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzU4gzssGgO
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjj5gCoPPW5
「茜可以先去梳洗一下，僕人們就在門口，一會她們會領你到飯廳。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEvniiSAlv
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPfFWQWL5p
「哦。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBWHjaVae6
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyE0YLwuO8G
待蕾大約地把事情交代後，她就和男子一起消失於門外。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckceDngNVg
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTCoIvJOyn
自此，她們的生活無憂，蕾也嫁了給那個男子。除了日夜倒轉外，好像沒什麼奇怪的地方……「好像」吧……582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEhki2FTDH
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yQHHSCbjF
太陽西下的黃昏，才是新一天的到來。茜覺得很不習慣，可是還得接受……因為姊姊就在這裡啊！在廣大的庭院閒逛，城堡的眾人也紛紛醒來，客氣地和她打招呼。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDW6B19CPj
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLoYOBAU4a
很幸福吧？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2gZkOwKrN
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkRC55HM8s
不用擔心衣食，也不用到處流浪。現在生活得如同童話中的公主，過得非常富足。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDlGESc9CK
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2sTuGRvwZ
只是……582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxuQaDxkH5
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGLAD67vpG
凝視雙手，空空如也。已經沒有人會牽著自己走，姊姊已嫁為人妻，不再是屬於她了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNQaMPwDjI
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe57wcqXoPD
「晚安，茜小姐。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47R1Tdkrzn
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpY4t7vWTCI
突然一把男聲從身邊響起，她嚇了一跳踉蹌地退後數步。當稍微定神，便發現是和自己混熟了的園丁。真是的，這裡的人都神出鬼沒，心臟弱一點都被嚇壞啊！582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHfNRIgzE7
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8qkagGWXM
「不用叫我小姐啦！」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEpIGQNXS9
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lpeOTnz4Y
茜沒好氣地回了他一句，接著便繼續沒精打采地踢地面邁步。然，園丁放下手上的工作，急步追上前伴在她身旁。關心地問她有否不適之類，可是她還是搖搖頭說沒事。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLNKNnzJLA
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBxmwv07lw
她，只是想姊姊陪在身邊而已。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0aZOE8S7n
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsbo7yIJvy
夕陽慢慢沒入地平線，換上是柔和的月光。地面的暖氣慢慢地消失，如此更令茜回想起與姊姊渡過的每一天。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXycmNbIGFs
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteEcRgyMZz
「那個，茜……有沒有看過雙生花？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT88X61ZzBu
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1rgNuZmc2
「雙生花？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJe0Z0yDJRh
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFolDh8uEl
「嗯，那是一蒂兩朵花的植物，看來就是很親密的樣子——」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaraVI58Fk
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmte6WMQIt
本來死氣沉沉的茜，終於恢復了一點精神，回到望向園丁尋求答案。記得雙生花只出現在傳說中，蕾以前好像也有說過這朵花呢！582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTPcHw5sUy
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfdMNlYLyd
「那麼在哪兒啊？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dc7P7uZGX
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdz45LMKUX
茜打斷了園丁的話，一副如同小女孩般雀躍的模樣，叫他不禁看呆了。雖然平常都會陪她聊聊天，但就是不見她如此興奮。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44Xk4aDxfg
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLhiSWcSDW
接著園丁便領著茜到某棵異常高聳的樹旁，聽說這樹由世界陷入大災難時，就守護這個國家，為消失綠意的世界重拾青綠的色彩。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlC2Y2ov5nt
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvurKOB95EA
不過，一切只是傳說，現在已經無從考證。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGw5je81KH
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XfuqVM1js
茜其實也滿喜歡這棵樹，總覺坐在樹下就能感受到心靈的安寧，故此她總是獨個兒跑來這裡。偶爾被園丁發現，就會和他說起她與姊姊的事。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Cas0pP6iE
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHB2jYYSoQa
幾乎每天到來的，她可從沒見到有什麼雙生花啊！582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzB4vbQ6xx
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡke3w91bHzS
與園丁一起走著、走著，二人就來到大樹下。很神奇地她果然見到有花朵，綻放著兩朵花，背對背而綻放的花朵。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHlcY5wYud
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrEXCC5yH3
「聽說如果一個人見到，就能遇到一生最深刻的愛。而兩個人見到的話——」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJdzv81t7D
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnd08CZEJpb
沒有等園丁說畢，茜就即時跑回城堡中。她的希望只有一個，就是能夠和蕾一起看。只有……她和她。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVEKrWktHP
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjWMJvW5vg
然而，是什麼地方出錯了呢？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIL5NhA7nIU
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSALsx8zzS
是過於愉快而忘了禮儀？或是她根本不清楚自己到底身處於什麼地方？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJgsLOl62Y
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPC59b908z
未有叩門就打開姊姊和那個男人的房間，就目睹他正舔蕾從手上放出的血水，茜嚇得立即把門關上，連蕾在裡面呼叫她也不回頭。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZmA7cKLMV
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2n9BFydBd7
茜的腦袋中只想著——那個男人是吸血鬼！582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaov2lhF2z
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvYkeCsXxE
會被殺！會被殺！582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSas1eStSJb
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYMecNircW
抱著被子瑟縮起來，全身顫抖不已。這時，有一隻手摸向茜的被窩，害她嚇得彈起來。隨即她就發現，原來是蕾來了，而那男人難得不在。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWaqUSQmaR
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgWLeQ1rQw
是放心，還是什麼？她抱住蕾大哭起來。不知過了多久，茜才止住眼淚，抓住蕾的雙肩，告訴她那男人是吸血鬼，要蕾和她一起逃走。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWwQbJRIrn
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWYoPyQMRu
只是蕾只說：「他是好人。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGDsaulB3L
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GYlpJsSIL
為什麼？姊姊已不信自己了嗎？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4Alwo1xBR
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xdfbdfWBP
之後茜見到園丁，和那男人都站在房門前，害怕的情緒即時萌起，只是她直覺不能表現出來，一定要裝作沒事。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkpOc6VsVC
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKzolMk08H
男子沒有多說什麼，筆直地走近她們，再把蕾抱起來。在尾隨的園丁示意下，茜就隨著他們，一起再去看看那朵雙生花。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZKS1CPU7U
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXGw6Ie0un
可惜當再次到達，本來背對背的雙生花已枯萎，卻扭轉了花枝，面對著面。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2lzKjULm9
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSOsptV03E
茜遠遠看著蕾，對方的眼中已沒有她。蕾的笑容和輕語，都給了那傢伙……明明是怪物！582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTPx0J2WSc
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9YBA1br96
沒法接受，不能相信，茜覺得蕾一定是被控制住，所以她決定了一件可怕的事，令她日後後悔不已的一件事。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPQUqDGf6v
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdfuNbLhBo
她偷了附近的地圖，在白日時偷偷溜出去，到城鎮中找人幫忙。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDYDjn2ML0
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NfcE355u5
當鎮民知道自己活在「怪物」之鄰，才開始結合力量，向教會求助。只是調動人手，可不是短時間就能成事。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8cVoTvJ5D
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrDRPngcwz
茜等了又等，過了數個月才終於等到教會軍到來。由於過於擔心姊姊的安危，茜就自願帶著士兵來到森林中。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoai1Spog9
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLBBrMWvog
那時是白天，大家都睡著。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ178zX8owt2
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtAx09MD3m
只要殺死吸血鬼就好了。茜本著這信念前進，可是她還來不及制止，士兵就把其他人也殺光。那些照顧過她的女僕，陪她聊天的園丁……582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRf0Vl3CCut
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXDgiMpC18
一個又一個地被殺害、燒死。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TDnh0hzPz
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUUj0fNZ8B
茜開始害怕，就朝著蕾的睡房，也就是吸血鬼的房間跑去。只是房間沒有人，她就一面呼叫，一面到處跑。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wiXzPUIiK
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjibI1T9vo
「姊姊！姊姊！」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpMIdW7G86
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxywgqjLZMH
去了哪兒啊？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJaLfy3eSL
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzUluM8jg3
最後，她找到了。蕾和那吸血鬼倒在一間可愛的房間中，滿滿的布偶，還有一張小小的床。這裡是嬰兒房？茜的心房突然揪住，她已沒勇氣繼續想下去。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYFQW3HSC4
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2A3g4ygsH8
茜走到蕾的身邊蹲下，那個吸血鬼已經死掉，他的頸項有著鮮明的牙印，而相對蕾的嘴巴滿是血水。她努力地將二人分開，才見到蕾微隆的肚部正在出血。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSE4zibYD5
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0wVBiqc7o
再往下看，茜再次見到蕾的雙腳。在被救後，蕾就一直穿著長裙，現在她終於明白原因何在。蕾的其中一隻腳不見了！傷口已結巴良久，所以一定不是近期做出的。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PrlmTnkD5
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeOu5hYFz0
茜想起第一次見到他，撇開了種族，他有對自己做什麼壞事嗎？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3cULMMW6F
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMO8SX55Gwg
沒有，他救了她們兩姊妹，更照顧她們日常生活。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJh08m0KfAh
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyCLkwFdss
至此她才終於明白，自己做了不能原諒，也沒法去補救的事。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4HCAL9KOU

接著，茜背起蕾逃出城堡。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCjM9PGcKO
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dx0Lhbfi9
待大火平息後，才回到城堡中，可惜也面目全非了。蕾不知是否受了太大打擊，幾乎什麼都忘記了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0rMSrv99Q
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefDPCuvIYw
而在那時開始，蕾也成為了吸血鬼，只能活於黑暗中。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4Gmm15IPS
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhfFXXvoz7
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceA9jX6VzI
「茜！你又發呆了啊！」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnQFveQdGK
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQ9SjCH5gc
「那個、我今天也帶來了禮物！」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXE2dLOSBlF
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeSJwHz1tC
坐在城堡中的蕾嚷著，令茜的思緒再次回到當下。茜一面迅速地轉變話題，一面翻動口袋，從中取出一顆種子。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQLNmFZIA3
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZdUyGiE1d
「這是什麼？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcYYO3E1Sp
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUHZuxeUjq
「曇花的種子，花朵在晚上開花，這麼你一定能夠看到。」茜想要彌補自己所犯下的罪，可是她知道這些事，都沒法子把事實去改變。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRB1Mch5xL
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6N39YJXCa
一直待到早上，茜才和蕾告別離開。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRWvuyP1Ba
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZ9QuxDbBx
日光照在茜的身上，她瞇起眼睛望向天空。以前和姊姊一起眺望，明明覺得日出很美麗的。只是為何現在什麼也感受不到了？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRrJ1uZteQ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhwusJT65n
即使是短短的瞬間，茜也覺得很難過。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3WMrTafxC
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXUPExZz7r
靠有接近永遠的心情，會是怎麼樣子呢？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXH5k2H6rjB
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCLPw2CN8X
想起蕾，茜只覺得很痛苦。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWJYyBli6f
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILXvkmxw0y
日復日地往返，茜依然每天都帶了不少珍美的東西到來。那朵曇花日漸地成長，冒出了一個花蕾，同時蕾沉默的時間也拉長。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggYD5i6cSA
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURx3d1C41l
不會是想起什麼吧？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiBjQruCCm
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAwwuk4od1
光是想像，茜的罪惡感就倍增，連掛在臉上的微笑也變得虛偽。直至——582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggnYKfu7FG
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1irzUJL17f
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOYRXcShQ3
花，開了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYJso43DOA
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlEHoEePHx
短短的瞬間綻開，也在下一秒就枯死。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZzZRodMhC
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4UV9cfMxo
「姊姊，很漂亮吧？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHtusKCoMV
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7QwBcNUmg
「……」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLz3eeqZR1
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCcIuWd0RZ
茜露出笑容，仰起頭望向蕾。然而她沒有回應，只定定地盯著那已枯萎的花朵。停頓了數分鐘，她才緩緩地把視線轉向茜。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGfQIS2nAo
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEze95gghu
「茜……」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZe26WgMYip
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGagI7i7iN
「呀、是？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8BuIAXXGk
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZBb64TaJD
「我想和你看日出。」蕾用沉穩的語氣說道，眼神充滿著平靜。只是茜錯愕地愣住數秒，就立即用力地搖搖頭。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7LY7omPVG
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9DBgeSX6F
蕾是吸血鬼！根本不能照到陽光啊！582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBb5KZcFcpo
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tdVpjkcdv
「沒事的，我遠遠地看就夠了……好嗎？」蕾主動地抓住茜的手，穿過了以城堡定下的界線。見此，茜也只好點頭答應。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwzv86AXwa
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwN8jUjodK
蕾看似輕巧地朝窗框以單手一拉，將整個落地大窗的框架扯出。接著她隨手地往裡面一丟，發出了滿大的聲響。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdj7eb8aHH
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOeqBrXs82
少了窗框的阻隔，這一年來，茜首次接近自己的姊姊。她蹲下身捉住蕾的手……沒有半點溫度，那雙曾是多麼溫暖的手。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0KVUH6xQx
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnAM5N68oh
那男人……不，「姊夫」一開始時，根本沒有想要將蕾變成吸血鬼。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcUHN3j0IM
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡah5pYReDtO
（一切都是我自以為是的妄想與妒嫉。）582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xC4xbEobT
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5HLGkJRSv
沒有愛，何生恨？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTsyJnPfV4
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PAUqkEp9N
捉緊又鬆開的兩手，茜轉個身看到這間「嬰兒房」中，放滿了她為蕾收集回來的東西。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljBXNNZ0jN
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZfNIOPRN8
漂亮的東西依然漂亮，卻不是美麗。放在房間中央的籃子內，什麼、也沒有。不忍再看下去，她就把蕾揹起來，踏出這個作為牢籠的荒城。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ53vG58z8Z
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HFsxY6W56
「記得東塔的閣樓能夠看到很棒的日出，讓我帶你去吧！」茜輕輕地說道，不敢發出太大的聲音，也不敢回頭，她總覺得背上濕漉漉的。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wX3xaTi1D
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlwLG09DeJ
經過了嬰兒的搖籃，本來環住茜的手臂，其中一隻在那鬆開。本來她想問蕾是否要停下，可是很快蕾就把手再度環上，而茜聽到一陣鈴鐺的聲音。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrcsOPicLY
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7ApcCFpmD
雖然茜沒有看到是什麼，她卻覺得是嬰兒的腳鏈。她硬著頭皮，繼續往城堡深處走。城內的屍體還在，於黑暗中沉默地長眠。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvo7mxufXV8
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWIaak0x61
每走一步，茜都覺得很難過，彷彿在說出自己的罪惡，滿地也是罪證。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5908QZ4HQ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4JOxNjwCg
好不容易才走到閣樓，窗戶卻被木板釘死。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zdWUDmiZi
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bZBkqEjOM
茜將蕾放在窗台上，本想試試能不能將釘板拆下，可是蕾只用一掌，就把那釘死的木板打碎。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhrVkd48Lb
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabGwI0yxh7
「姊姊，來坐去那面的角落，不然會被太陽照到……」茜想要再次背起蕾，卻被對方撥開了手。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzesPoTFlW
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeDBcbpulK
「姊姊……」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkbBM7jSEJ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgNNFKh1RX
「茜，你覺得什麼才是最美麗？」突如其來的問句，把茜的話打斷。蕾望向還是昏暗的天空，再從懷中小心翼翼地拿出一隻腳鏈。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDHkS1habu
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFacA2hxRb
叮鈴……582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzezTjsjDTl
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQet8llSvQ
果然蕾剛才拿的就是這個，所有事她都記起來了吧？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNB2fHa2hI
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPDI4QDXqw
茜佇足在原地，一句話也說不出來。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6pAR3ht1f
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yE6Gc6EtH
「這個問題，『他』也問過我。」蕾仰起頭，把身體朝向窗外。是懷念心愛的那人，還是想起當時的那顆心呢？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rXZGylapM
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuV8SIYXtE
茜沒有回答，蕾也沒有追問。她仰望夜空，就覺得好像聽到心愛之人的呼喚。她不自覺地向天空微微舉起手，同時光線從地平線綻放。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4k41848my
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSBInQSaRB
是被光線迷惑嗎？蕾見到了，見到了如空氣般透明的他。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFS7Qk0Sv9
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqqHWVWnRe
難以站起來的蕾，用手按住牆壁勉強撐起。茜見狀就環起蕾的腰，想把她拉回到屋內。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxakNOoUl9
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBn2ZMCCmL
「不要啊！姊姊！」茜悲傷的尖叫，令蕾稍微回頭。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDcYXBUaok
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvFocFd6xO
可惜太遲了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTf9Pznd89
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQjudNhR6J
蕾對茜露出一抹溫暖的微笑後，就縱身到窗外。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJePw696Fe
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKIFBOXe0t
破曉的光芒完全地綻出，被照到的蕾開始化成粉末，只是她還是沒有放棄，努力地接近那個近似幻象的他。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWl6pyimiei
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhagHJoCRz3
「太好了，我們終於——」蕾無法說畢的話，化作輕煙。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYir35nW7VY
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwzGjHvFle
被剩下來的茜，張大眼睛望向天空，想起了蕾曾告訴她的雙生花——為了所愛的另一朵花，而去獻出自己的所有，不求回報。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyb8UeqJi9J
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIf42kFE0pp
「另一朵花可否是……」茜喃喃地說出，然後從窗台、蕾消失的位置跳出去。
